Motion Detection Menu
The Motion Detection menu allows you
to set motion options for each camera.
Note: The DVR detects motion based
on the level of change in the picture.
Use the arrow buttons to move around
the screen. Press the / Mute but-
ton one time to select the position
on screen then press the arrow but-
tons up/down and left/right to draw
out a detection box and press the
Mute button again to close the box.
In the example to the left, the blue mo-
tion box is drawn over the door. Only
motion occurring in this area will trig-
ger recording i.e. the door opening.
Channel: Select which camera attributes to change from camera 1-4.
Sensitivity: Set the amount of movement necessary before motion detection
triggers recording. Set from 1 (most sensitive) to 4 (least sensitive), default Off.
Note: this feature must be set from 1-4 to enable motion recording.
Alarm Duration: Set the length of time the alarm will sound when motion is
detected. Set to Off, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 seconds or Continuous. Note: If the
Alarm Duration is set to Continuous the alarm will continue to sound until this
setting is changed.
Motion Area: Select the area of the Camera to detect motion. Motion
occurring outside this designated area will not trigger a recording.
This feature is helpful in high traffic areas where only a small portion of the
screen needs to be monitored for example, looking down a driveway with a busy
road next to it.
Important: To enable Motion Recording you must set the Sensitivity, Motion
Area for each camera AND set Motion Record in the Record Schedule menu.
